jtval 0 #1 July 26, 2005 So did any one ever win the 6000th canopy that was mentioned in the may issue of parachutist? I figured there would be some kind of thing on the website. the only FREE canopy is from the YEARLY giveaway. I didnt see anything from the 6000 Manufactured main.( I kind of doubt they reached that number yet, but I'm curious) CCowden, You have any info?My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bwilling 0 #6 July 26, 2005 From the PD newsletter... "John Storrie, from Storrie Parachute Works, sold our 6,000th Sabre2 to a lucky winner in Texas! Performance Designs celebrated the success of its Sabre2 line of canopies with a special promotion for the lucky person to order serial number 6,000th. Michael Nowatney won the trip of a lifetime when he decided to order his Sabre2 150: * FREE canopy-his Sabre2 canopy at no charge * FREE trip to Deland, FL to visit Performance Designs' facilities. * FREE first jump on his new canopy with John Leblanc, vice-president of Performance Designs and head designer of our products * FREE canopy control class with Scott Miller * FREE case of beer * And of course, tons of pictures and memories of our celebration as we feature him on magazines and websites worldwide! Needless to say - I think 6,000 is Michael's NEW lucky number!" "If all you ever do is all you ever did, then all you'll ever get is all you ever got."

Kolla 0 #14 July 28, 2005 Pale Ale... Michael likes that stuff :) Personally I prefer darker beer, but since he was the winner I toasted him in that pale stuff, and it wasn't too bad. We did have a great time having Michael out for a visit - and I think he had a pretty good time too, jumping with John LeBlanc, doing canopy school with Scott Miller and hanging out with the rest of us!
